Penny Jo is apparently the name of the character the Everything Sucks actress plays in the film. She is a waitress who is on a journey to steal a valuable artifact and meets other people with the same mission on her way. Most importantly, Jo’s character has a stutter in the film; hence, the 25-year-old actress had to work a lot on that.
The chaos in the film ensues as a gang of people tries to grab the shirt. The film is a dark comedy thriller that chronicles the trip of these individuals trying to steal the garment, which is a fabled Native American artifact.
